United Kingdom@feddit.uk•UK: China could use microchips to disable smart meters in British homes, MP warnsEnglish
22·15 days agoChinese companies are subject to strict regulatory requirements that compel them to act on instructions from the ruling Chinese Communist Party and state authorities.
Companies in every state, including the UK and all the UK’s allies, are compelled to act on instructions from their state’s ruling party. This is framed in such a ridiculous way.

The comic is not fractal, it’s recursive.
Epic fail.

The publishing format makes no difference. Making arbitrary statements with nothing to back them up is bad. It’s what religions do, ironically.
No sources to back up their arbitrary claims. What a crap atheist.
How can I help another?
Maybe that’s where you’re going wrong? Have you considered a relationship where you both help yourselves and are not dependent on each other?
I don’t get it :-( What’s in the Fremen’s speech bubbles?

All modern chargers are made to negotiate with the charging device for power and voltage, including sending none because the device is full.
Definitely not. Even if no device is plugged in to a charger, the circuitry in the charger still uses electricity. Even a basic transformer with no control processor will still use electricity because they, like all machines, are not 100% efficient.
You plug it in when you aren’t using it
I would never leave a device on charge permanently. That would use excess electricity.
